Frankie is pregnant again

The Saturdays singer, who lost out in the final to television presenter Caroline Flack in the 2014 show, has announced she is to become a mum again later this year.

In a tweet, she wrote: ''So excited to tell you that Wayne & I are expecting another baby later this year. We can't wait for Parker to have a little brother or sister.''

The couple's first child, a son, Parker, was born in October 2013.

Frankie was originally due to take part in this year’s Strictly tour, but has now had to pull out due to “illness”.

A tour organiser said Frankie is currently suffering with the same severe pregnancy sickness - hyperemesis gravidarum – which the Duchess of Cambridge is afflicted with during her pregnancies.

The spokesman said: ''We completely respect Frankie's decision; a safe pregnancy is the priority. On behalf of the whole cast and crew, we send Frankie our love and very best wishes - we will miss her.''

In an official statement issued through the tour, Frankie said: ''Wayne and I are delighted to announce that we are expecting our second baby. It is very early days, but we couldn't be happier and Parker will make a wonderful big brother.

''Although this is such an incredible time for us as a family, due to health reasons I am sadly unable to go on the Strictly tour as planned.

''I'm devastated that I'm missing out, as I loved Strictly so much and was so looking forward to joining everyone again in all those fabulous arenas. Thanks for the warm messages I've already received, they are really appreciated.''
